“Oktoberfest has such a rich history, and we are excited to incorporate so many German traditions into this festival,” said Maja Russer, director of events and marketing for festival organizer Keystone Neighbourhood Company, in a release. “The race kicks off the day, and we cannot wait to kick off Labor Day weekend with such a memorable festival.”
